Title: Re: Paddler's Liars Club Post by pine_knot on Dec 9th, 2020 at 9:31pm
With all the recent posts about aging, joint replacements, back fusions, etc it is apparent we all have tremendous respect for Wally13's fishing prowess, and his singularly obsessive pursuit of those elusive trophy walleye. He's known to fish for hours and hours sometimes with only one arm, sore wrists, and probably a leg or two heavily wrapped in Ace bandages. But have you heard of his really legendary talent?
Wally13 has been known to catch walleye from shore with no fishing gear at all, especially during full moonlight just after dusk. You see, he is gifted with abnormally acute eyesight in the moonlight, like a big cat, and massive adrenaline surges. He'll stalk the shallows along the shore, and when he sights his unsuspecting prey, he'll crouch low to the ground, fingers and hands twitching. Then with unbelievable speed and agility, he'll leap high above the water, with full-throated growls like a grizzly, and pounce repeatedly, creating tremendous whitewater froth. He'll leap 10 feet over and over chasing his prey, only stopping when he finally has in each fist a bloodied and healthy walleye, along with one or two more in his smiling jowls. This is a true tale....I've seen it!! Although, my eyes are not as good in the moonlight compared to Wally13.... |
